TO THE RIGHT REVEREND FATHER in God and Right Honourable LORD JOHN Lord Bishop of Lincolne Lord Keeper of the great SEALE of his Maiesties most Honourable PRIVIE COVNCELL c. Right Reuerend and Right Honourable I Haue little Learning but I haue so much Musicke as to know there is no discord so harsh as when Benefits and vngratefulnesse are put together This is a discord that cannot be tempered by any art to make a grace or to make the harmonie more rare and artificiall It were a shame for me therefore that know somewhat in Musicke to commit such an vnpardonable errour in manners And this I must of necessitie doe if with all humility from the deepest thoughts of my heart in priuate and in publique I doe not expresse all possible thankefulnesse to so Great so Wise so Learned so Noble and bountifull a Patron and Benefactour Goodnesse is not to be esteemed by quantity A Hand or an Eye drawne by a curious Painter is worth a large Table done by an ordinarie Hand But your Lordships Beneficence was both great and good For it was an Annuity for my life and it was done so that it had in it all that can commend a good deed It was not done for allyance or former knowledge which makes a benefit a debt Not for Seruice past for that is not a benefit but a reward Not wrung or forced by long suit or mediation of friends which puls downe the price of any benefit Not after long delay and much wayting which is the torment of Suitours and makes a benefit payd for before it come Not done with wayward lookes and chiding which vnder the colour of good counsell giues a benefit a bitter taste of contumelie Nor wonne after some denyals and repulses that which we wrastle for we account our owne Neither was it giuen vpon no cause for so benefits are not placed but cast away It had none of these but all the contrary commendations For your Lordship conferred it on me when I was vnknowne vnto you when no man had euer spoken for me when I was farre remote and least thought of so Honourable a friend and lesse of such a fauour and it was sent by your Lordship to me and all this done so that when I came to sent my thankes your Lordship knew not who I was yet was it done vpon hearing of some Motects of mine of which I would not in modesty speake but that it makes for your Lordships iust praise He doth not giue but throw away that hath no reason for his giuing Let the world then be iudge if I haue not good cause to professe all thankefulnesse And if euery man whom your Lordship hath thus preuented in greater matters as I haue heard of a great many since this fauour was done to me had opportunity or would take occasion to giue your Lordship thankes as this Paper doth it would turne the enuy of some ill-disposed into admiration of your sweet and noble nature For my poore selfe I haue hastened these few Motects that I might show some part of my thankefulnesse and be further indebted to your Lordship for a new fauour in taking them vnder your Lordships protection I know they are not worthy your Lordships eare but thankefulnesse consists not in the meanes but in the heart of him that for benefits is engaged Yet it would be some content to me if I were sure that as many eyes would looke vpon this Epistle as it may be there will be eares to heare the Songs I present But I must be content with the inward testimonie of my heart in which I will daily pray for your Lordships happinesse and honour and rest Your Lordships most humbly deuoted MICHAELL EST.
